Hoovie genuinely enthused about a car.

Rear main oil seal leaking...ridiculous temporary fix....

Some pop art inspired ADO16 action in this music video from an early 1990s band that had escaped my attention:

 

[FakeConcern]

Mini action!

4x4 2CV with trailer accommodation. Use the subtitles. They are not auto translated, thankfully.

Gotthard Pass 1960's. Spot the few adventurous Brits too.

Quite enjoying this guys handy work and laid back manner on camera . This is his new project for a customer, bring back a Standard 8 to life with a plan to fit a turbo MX5 engine to it..... Cant quite understand how he gets so few views?

Is that a Standard 8 or a 10? My dad had a 10 and I thought the 8 had a non opening boot lid and a painted grill rather than chrome, but could be wrong. Also did I hear him call it a Standard 10 near the end of the video? Either way a good watch and I agree why not lots of views for some good content?

You maybe correct, I know very little about Standards, actually according to my better half I have very low standards.............

So this is why SAABs are disappearing. Scrapped just for the engines.

Have to say what a great job has been done to make this car a real sleeper. A lot of tricks.

[MiniMinorMk3]

I bet this is a laugh

 

[3VOM]

A WTF moment

 

[bunglebus]

Lots of stuff I didn't know

Trabant 601 - A Car Built From Almost Nothing.

 

[warren t claim]

Fast forward 3;30 for some red hot @dollywobbler pornography. Has any other vehicle ever been fitted with this wiper feature?

'legendary' 1984 Jag promo vid, rather good.

1000 classic vehicles - Reproduction of a French holiday road in 1960

 

[Aston Martin]

I watched the last third.

Turns out a v12 Ferrari is expensive. 😧

Slightly late, but it's 60 years since the Cortina first appeared on our roads, and 40 since it was replaced by the blob.

Drinking game:  take a drink every time the narrator says "legend".

Actually don't do this, you will die.

[SteersWithThrottle]

Very subjective choices, most of which I personally disagree with, but the AI narration is hilariously bad, partly because the script is bad. Some of these cars would fit in the "Cars you never knew existed" thread

Remember seeing this when it was originally on but just found again when browsing YouTube.  Rather randomly featuring Louise Aitken-Walker and her co-driver, the lovely Tina Thorner.  Some Bond Bug action about half way through

 

[wesacosa]

The late Dave Metcalfe absolutely ragging his little Nova around the Manx. Surely he was destined for great things had he not been killed in a recce accident not long after

That A30 is a bloody early one.  Look at the dash and the way the bootlid hinges open.

That's a rare one.

It looks as if it is on it's last legs. Engine bay and boot show original colour. Badly painted blue paint. Gear change rather bodged. Window rubbers perished. Heater with no air intake duct. One  trafficator missing. Runs well just needs some TLC.
